I suppose this has nothing to do with fitness but hey.

I'm a Mechnical Services Engineer/ Estimator, i'm office based and wear a suit to work. I had no meetings/ visits this week and thought i'd grow a bit of a beard.

I'm just wondering what your views are on stubble? Especially the girls views.

Do i get rid of it, style it, make a goatie?

What you think, lol

    I personaly love the scruffy look, messed up hair and messy beard although i'm an not sure it fit everybody, my boyfriend does it all the time, although i'm sure its out of lazyness rather then trying to please me lol :laugh:

    GROW IT but don't style it. Scruffy = better than specific facial hair shape (goatee, moustache, soul patch (ugh) and if you want before you shave the whole thing off try a "shape" for a day and see how you like it !! I like a guy who tries new looks. But the same thing all the time gets tired. Just my opinion !!!
  • IM AGREEING WITH THE SCRUFFY LOOK.

    i hate facial hair on men usually in general, but that's probably because i'm a jawbone-type girl.

    Most facial hair depends on them man, but I love the goatee (neat and trimmed) but hair grow it away. love long hair as well. :wink:
  • lol, my brother has long hair and a goatie... and hes not fat like me, but he's married lol

    umm... does it irritate the skin?, it used to on my wife if it was short. But as i'm single i certainly don't want to put women off, my fat will do that lmao

    My husband tends to let his scruff grow on the weekends and I have to say by Sunday evening I don't want him anywhere near me. lol. It's really scratchy. My daughter complains too.

    I like the way facial hair looks on most men, but for anything other than looking, I like a clean shavin jaw bone. :wink:

    I think it was 1999.....last time i didnt have some sort of facial hair. Ive been going between a close trimed beard and goatee since 2003. My GF says shes gone if i shave it off so i guess she likes it.

    I love, love, love my man being scruffy... very sexy!
    But I also like the goatee... but I pick scruffy over anything.

  • I love the look of a long goatee, no mustache...
    So sexy :love:

    Good luck with yours!!
  • hmm.. not sure what to do now...

    However, it ok at the mo but will start to catch on my shirt collar and that is a bit anoying, also once it reaches that stage if find it itches when i sweat, so the gym might cause a problem.

    It may look ok but if it keeps the ladies away.. it'll have to go..

    I could go out to night and see how i get on... theres an excuse if i've ever heard one lol

    Wow, you look so much like that actor from Nacho Libre!!!!!!!!!!!! hee hee I like the way some facial hair looks like and the goatee if it is trimmed but it does irritate my skin when kissing. My husband grew some facial hair after he retired from the ARMY but went back to shaving when I told him his hair was scratching my face...:laugh:

    I love goat t's!!
  • right ok, i'm still very much undecided but i put this to you...

    I'll go out tonight un shaven and see how i do:wink: but do i trim the edges?

  • Too much facial hair and you run the risk of looking like grizzley adams..too little and it looks like you can't grow one...what to do??? Well...being a woman......beard stubble hurts when making out....so if your NOT planning on spreading the love, go for stubble because lets face it...it looks sexy!!!!! but make sure its a clean stubble.....you know what I mean , nicely trimmed.....not the I'm too lazy to shave stubble...the one that says....I'm too sexy for my beard!!:wink:
  • right, ok, i think i'll try the clean stubble but at the mo its past the short sand paper length and is quite soft, as soft as it could be anyway.

    Still like shave it off as i always plan on spreading the love lol
  • Just new facial hair, dnt like it when it gets too long though it is softer then, but when its just growing then yeah thats nice. Im like another laydee that said about the jawlines, i love to see facial structutre, so the less the better!!

    :bigsmile:
  • the less the better, wonder if that works anywhere else?? lol

    :tongue:
  • My man has long hair and a long goatee... I used to hate the look of facial hair before I met him... now I love it when he doesn't shave the sides for a couple of days... I think he is sexy because I love him... and I grew to love the hair too... so I wouldn't worry about the ladies... it's not the facial hair that will land you a nice woman... it's who you are... be witty and nice... open doors and hold out chairs... be ready with a joke... if you can get a girl to laugh then you are 3/4 of the way there...

    HAHA funny, my husband and I have been arguing about facial hair for weeks now. His work has recently allowed the men to grow facial hair when before they weren't allowed any at all, so he has taken it completely overboard and I told him he reminds me of the Bushwackers form WWF years ago lol!! Anyway, I like stubble and goatees but hate full on beards! As long as it's kinda clean cut I think it looks nice!

    I used to love the Bushwackers... they cracked me up
